A new release V1.50 is in the works, and should appear this spring at the new not-quite-updated web-site as listed below... Happy New Year! - N :o) =============================================================== ========================= PLEASE NOTE ========================= =============================================================== Copenhagen - July. 2001 DiamondBOX is a 24 bit layer based Photo Retouching editor inspired by photogenics. It's done in C++ as a way of solving a practical problem while at the same time familiarizing myself with the OO approach. * A little feature list ==================================================================================== - Always find the newest public release of DiamondBOX and other info at: http://diamondbox.webpunkt.dk ============================= - Fully multithreaded. - Internal representation of images always 32-bit. - Add as many layers as you want (and have RAM for). - Change Layer-Effects on the fly and watch the changes right before your very eyes. - Draw with Air Brush, Text, Lines, Rectangles, Ellipses or even lightnings. - Apply textures to Effects for compositions or strange Alpha Channels. - Create your own brushes. - Print using the TurboPrint saver. - Save your picture as a C-source 24-bit bitmap. - Different Generators to create fractal skies or maybe just plain pieces of paper. - Loads and saves IFF-ILBM / IFF-DEEP / JPEG / PNG. - Expandable - write your own Pebbles (Savers / Loaders / Effects...) - Change all Toolbar buttons with DiamondBOX itself. * Need to have/know: ==================================================================================== - OS3.0+ - CGFX 2+ - (Picasso96 works for me) - 68020+ - 8+ Mb RAM - Make sure you have a GFX board, and run DiamondBOX on a 16+ bit public screen. Default is Workbench. Set name of PubScreen in icon. - DiamondBOX eats loads of RAM - the more you have the better!! - Install by dearchiving into any Drawer of your choice. - Please read thru the tutorial in the guide!!! This is not DPaint :o) br... Nikolaj Thygesen nkt@ecsoft.dk
